Ruby needs surgery!!!!

Rubydoo · 11-14-2009, 09:03 PM

The skin tag on her bottom lip is growing and she keeps getting bacteria around it. She is on antibiotics again but can't be taking them forever. And there's a very hard lump on her hip that the vet is concerned about. So...even tho we don't want her to have surgery at her age, she has to. It'll be done on November 30th.

Janice and little Ruby

Fingers and paws crossed for little Ruby. If she's healthy otherwise, I bet she'll do fine (and she is,right?)....

Best wishes to Ruby! Spencer had surgery this past summer to remove a cyst that would not stay healed, had 10 teeth removed & had his remaining teeth cleaned. I was worried sick about him because of his age, but he did just fine. I bet Ruby does too.

Good luck with the surgery and have a quick recovery!

We'll have little Ruby in our thoughts, Janice, but I'm sure she'll do great. My 19 year old cat had surgery once and he did just fine. Stay positive!

Love Marcia, Mike, Sally, Rocky and Bliss

All of our good thoughts are heading your way. Ruby seems to be such a little trooper I have no doubt she will do very well.
